11 PhD and 5 postdoctoral fellowships are available for candidates interested in research on neurotechnology, neuroprosthetics, computational neuroscience, data analysis and modeling, translational neuroscience and neurosurgery, neural engineering and neurology.

Neurotechnology is a rapidly growing field of research, thriving to repair, replace or support physical functions affected by nervous system diseases by technical means.
At the Bernstein Focus for Neurotechnology (BFNT) electrical and chemical signals recorded in the brain to control external or implanted devices, are exploited.
The BFNT efforts are organized in projects on fundamental neurotechnological research, the development of new techniques, clinical testing and neuroethical considerations.
Right now, the following positions are available:
